Lofty Goals

As I've mentioned in recent posts, Boston weather is somewhere between winter and spring lately. Some days it's 60 degrees, but then it will drop back down to the 30's! I snagged these super cute and cozy accessories from a Loft sale to tide me over until the sun decides to shine for good (or at least for a few weeks).

I'm completely obsessed with this white infinity scarf - it's faux fur with little swirls and rosette dimples all over it, which gives it this amazingly soft texture. On the inside it's actually knitted so it really traps the heat, keeping my neck and core warm. AKA the best combination ever! It's kind of like having a warm cloud or marshmallow around your neck, except if it were a marshmallow I would definitely eat it and then I would be cold again. So this is much better.

If my hands are cold, I'm cold. So I grabbed these marled knit gloves in spring coral (yes that's the official color, I double checked)! They also came in blue, which is my favorite color so I almost got those instead, but I try not to have everything in my closet be the same color. It's good to branch out, right?

How many of you watched the Oscars? I'm definitely on team Leo, and I think he deserves to have at least ONE Academy Award under his belt for all the great roles he's played. After all, that's the ultimate goal as an actor, award-wise. I also loved how he took his moment in the spotlight to talk about real things, like global warming.

Speaking of goals, I've finally narrowed down a major goal for myself this year - bringing lunch to work more often! When you do the math, eating out for lunch really does add up, and I've been so bad about this. I'd love to hear your tips for planning work lunches!

P.S. If you're a fan of Loft and sales like I obviously am, they're having a leap year sale today where everything is 29% off! Not that I'm condoning any online shopping or anything.
